Exceptional horse property with historic charm

Discover the epitome of homestead-style living at Gheringhap.

Presented by Elders Real Estate in conjunction with Charles Stewart Real Estate, this extraordinary property at 241 Bakers Bridge Road is now available for sale with a price expectation exceeding $8 million.

It’s easy to understand why – this unparalleled estate represents a rare masterpiece, a creation so remarkable that it would take a century to replicate.

“Bakers Bridge Farm” enjoys more than 3km of Moorabool River frontage and is nestled on a magnificent undulating holding of just under 300 acres of river flats and rolling hills.

This exceptional rural property offers two historic bluestone dwellings and additional workers’ quarters, extensive equestrian facilities, and a mix of grazing land and lucerne paddocks.

Conveniently located in Gheringhap, this property is only 20 minutes from central Geelong and just over an hour to Melbourne.

Elders rural and lifestyle sales manager Peter Lindeman said it was rare that properties of this calibre came on the market.

“This sale represents a great opportunity to purchase in a tightly-held, sought-after location providing a grand rural lifestyle with easy access to Geelong and Melbourne.

“The 1850s bluestone farmstead has been expanded over the centuries to include four internal and two external bedrooms.”

The home boasts high ceilings and rustic concrete floors that define the main living/dining area adjoining the kitchen.

Outside, a stunning pool is framed by an established palm tree, and a towering kurrajong tree anchors the property.

The second dwelling, a fully renovated bluestone stable, features two bedrooms plus nursery and an open plan layout.

The original workers’ quarters offer three further bedrooms, living spaces, and various shared amenities.

The equestrian facilities on the property are second to none, with a 31.5 x 21.5m undercover complex including 15m round yard and 26 individual yards, a 65m x 30m outdoor ménage, a 9m x 24m shed with four stables, a tack room and adjacent truck/float bay.

A large 18.5m x 18.5m machinery shed, while two hay sheds, two-stand shearing shed, sheep and cattle yards, eight paddocks and 36 ha – 90 acres of river flats under lucerne cater to diversified farming pursuits.
